Erlang/OTP at EE: journey and lessons learned

Hi all,

At the next meetup on 28 May, Chandru Mullaparthi, Head of Service Development at EE, talking about EE's Erlang adventure:

Abstract:

Erlang/OTP has been in use at EE and its ancestors for the past 12 years. Even though there are very few full time Erlang developers, systems developed using Erlang/OTP underpin the entire data revenue stream. This talk will be about the journey, the lessons learned, and a completely biased view about why Erlang/OTP is awesome.
